After the divorce, I became a mountain god

Previously at Zhang Wenzhong’s house, Xu Boan used peaches to treat Zhang Panpan’s burns, and the most important reason was to test the efficacy of peaches.

Because I was busy at the time, I used great self-control and only took a small sip, without having time to savor it carefully.

Now the remaining half of the peach is right in front of me, and I am the only one in the room. Of course, I don't need strong self-control to restrict myself from eating my own food.

Xu Boan couldn't wait to start tasting it carefully. He took a light bite, and instantly, a rich fruity aroma burst out in his mouth, sweet but not greasy, teasing his taste buds just right.

The taste was more delicious and fuller than the small bite he had taken before, as if it contained the essence of nature and the vitality of life.

The peach flesh is delicate and juicy, melts in your mouth, bringing an incomparable silky feeling.

What surprised Xu Boan even more was that as he tasted more, he felt an indescribable freshness and refreshing feeling. The feeling was not like the touch of ordinary fruits, but more like an ethereal feeling that cleansed the soul.

It was as if a clear spring was flowing in his mouth, washing away the dust in his soul and making him feel lighter.

Xu Boan couldn't help but slowly close his eyes and enjoy this unique beauty. When he ate the last small piece, he couldn't help but feel reluctant to leave. The last small piece of fairy peach became extremely precious in Xu Boan's eyes.

It's like the feeling of an elementary school student holding the last piece of candy tightly in his hand. He wants to taste the sweetness, but he doesn't want it to disappear.

This may sound a little ridiculous for Xu Boan, who is nearly 40 years old, but Xu Boan believes that if anyone tastes such exotic and delicious food, it will evoke the long-lost innocence and happiness, as if time is gently flowing back at this moment.

Finally, Xu Bo'an reluctantly gave up the peach, as if he had made a difficult decision. He slowly put the last piece of fairy peach into his mouth, savoring the final sweetness. At that moment, he seemed to have returned to his carefree childhood, his heart filled with happiness and satisfaction.

After eating the fairy peach, Xu Boan was still immersed in it. The taste of the fairy peach made him linger in the aftertaste. After a while, he felt a series of wonderful and significant changes gradually taking place in his body.

Xu Boan felt a warm and gentle power flowing slowly in his body, as if a clear spring was nourishing every corner of his body. This energy not only made him feel unprecedented comfort and relaxation, but he could also feel that his muscles seemed to become tighter and stronger.

It even seemed that the bones had become tougher, and the whole person seemed to be renewed, full of energy and vigor!

Xu Boan lowered his head and looked at his body carefully, and found that his skin had become visibly smoother and more delicate, and his skin tone was even and translucent. Xu Boan walked to a mirror in the bedroom in surprise and carefully looked at himself in the mirror.

He found that not only his skin was much better than before, but his eyes were also brighter and more energetic, and his eight abdominal muscles were more obvious. He seemed to exude an indescribable charm and temperament.

That is to say, Xu Boan, a grown man, usually doesn't pay attention to his clothes and hairstyle. If he dresses up a little, he will be absolutely handsome. Not only does he have the dazzling handsomeness of male stars on the screen, but he also has the unique calmness and strength of men. He is definitely a handsome man! He is the dream of millions of girls and aunts!
Xu Boan was quite surprised when he looked at himself in the mirror. Unconsciously, he had undergone a transformation. He couldn't tell exactly what had changed, but at a glance, the temperament and feeling he exuded were completely different from before, as if he had undergone some subtle changes. People who didn't know him would think Xu Boan had gone to a beauty salon or plastic surgery hospital for a minor cosmetic surgery!
No wonder the scar removal effect on Zhang Panpan’s body was better than he had imagined. It turned out that the fundamental reason was because of this magical fairy peach!
When the spirit of the peach tree gave these peaches to Xu Boan, it did say that eating the peach flesh could nourish the body and improve skin quality.

Looking at it now, this is indeed the case. It cannot even be summarized by these four simple words: "replenishing qi and nourishing skin".

But for a woman, this effect is of course what she wants, but for a well-known man like Xu Bo'an, it seems a bit tasteless. Becoming more handsome and younger is not a bad thing, but Xu Bo'an has never been a man who relies on his looks to make a living. He relies on his strength!
After treating Zhang Panpan, Xu Boan learned that peaches can replenish qi and nourish the skin, as well as improve physical condition. After eating them himself, he feels that the effects of peaches in replenishing qi and nourishing the skin are absolutely not to be underestimated.

However, when I treated Zhang Panpan, I adopted a combination of internal and external methods. At that time, I only let Zhang Panpan drink a bowl of Chinese medicine that I made myself. That Chinese medicine was combined with peaches and boiled into a large pot.

Zhang Panpan only drank one bowl. It can be imagined that the amount of peach is actually very small. But now thinking back, such a tiny ingredient can make Zhang Panpan's skin become white and translucent, which shows how great its effect is.

Since peaches have such benefits, if you cooperate with a beauty salon, you can earn a lot of money.

Suddenly thinking that he had taken most of the medicine and the effect was the same, Xu Boan suddenly felt that he was being too extravagant.

Thinking of the five peaches left in the mountain temple, Xu Bo'an suddenly thought of his previous conjecture, that is, whether the longer the peaches are on the peach tree, the greater the efficacy? If this is true, then putting the peaches given to him by the peach tree in the mountain temple, wouldn't it be a big loss?
No, I have to wait until tomorrow when I am free to ask the spirit of the peach tree to see if these peaches are as I imagined. The older they are, the more magical effects they will have, just like the peaches in the Peach Garden in the myth.

As it was getting late, Xu Bo'an did not stay up late. He looked at the quiet night in the mountain village and fell into a deep sleep.

Nothing happened that night. Early the next morning, Xu Boan was woken up by a phone call.

Seeing that it was Zheng Qiudong calling, Xu Bo'an took two deep breaths to wake himself up, then answered the call.

"Hello, General Zheng! Do you have any instructions?" Xu Bo'an greeted humbly.

Zheng Qiudong on the other end of the phone said hurriedly: "Oh, oh, Bo'an, this is not right. I called you so early. I hope I didn't disturb your rest!"

Xu Boan glanced at the clock hanging on the wall. It was only 7:30 in the morning, and there was still half an hour before he had to punch in at the company. However, he usually had to go to the company for lunch at this time, so it was not considered early.

"Mr. Zheng, you are too polite. I didn't bother you. Thank you for your concern! But you are calling at this time. Is there something wrong?"

Generally speaking, for normal work matters, unless it is a direct supervisor or direct subordinate, when other people call about work, usually everyone will communicate during working hours.

Although Zheng Qiudong is the director of human resources of the group, normally, when communicating with the branches and subsidiaries about business matters, it is impossible to go directly to the top or second in command, but to go to the corresponding responsible department. So this call was made on a personal basis, and the communication was most likely not about work.

Zheng Qiudong explained, "I am ashamed to say this! I know that the bastard from our HR department offended you yesterday. First of all, I have to apologize to you. It was because of my poor leadership that this happened. Not only did he misinterpret my meaning, but he also leaked some plans of the group company, and he was so disrespectful and offended you!"

Xu Bo'an smiled and said, "Mr. Zheng, please don't say that. This matter has nothing to do with you. You are a good brother and you take good care of me, your younger brother. I can't thank you enough!

As for what happened yesterday, I didn't take it to heart at all. President Zheng, don't think you have anything to do with it. That guy is an adult, and he has to take full responsibility for his mistakes and faults. It has nothing to do with you. I know it clearly in my heart!"

Zheng Qiudong explained, "Thank you for your understanding. I was planning to call you yesterday to discuss this, but after thinking about it, I decided to deal with that guy first and then communicate with you, which would appear more sincere.

But as you know, there were too many meetings yesterday. I held an ad hoc meeting at noon to discuss some things, and in the afternoon I attended a meeting on temporary human resources regulations organized by the higher authorities via the video conference system.
Then we convened a meeting of our group company and passed down the deployment. It was late at night before we had time to deal with the boy. The current result is that he is suspended from his post and kept on duty for observation. Do you think this result is acceptable?"

Xu Bo'an frowned slightly. To be honest, he was a little surprised to hear the news.

Suspended from the post and kept on duty for observation?
It does sound like a punishment, but you have to know that the person offended is the head of the corporate group!
Not only was it very embarrassing, but he also violated the rules by openly drinking on a working day!
That's all he got, a probationary period?
This is not a question of whether it is acceptable or not, this is just a joke!
However, Xu Boan also understood that since he could be told the result of the punishment, it meant that Su Tai already knew about it.

Under such circumstances, such results can be maintained. Obviously, this shows that the background of the leader of the HR team 1 is not simple.

At least even Su Tai has to give the other party some face.

In this case, why does Xu Boan need to express his opinion?
Xu Bo'an laughed lightly and said, "Suspended from his post, on probation? Haha, what about Liu Huawen? I wonder what kind of punishment he got!"

This time, Zheng Qiudong answered clearly and said, "As for Liu Huawen, the decision has been made to dismiss him from his position and retire early according to the treatment of a junior worker. The relevant punishment content will be reported to all branches and subsidiaries of the group as a warning! You should be able to see the relevant documents after work."

Xu Boan nodded. This was what Liu Huawen did. It was a real punishment. He was directly dismissed from his post.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Mr. Zheng, and for calling me to tell me!" Xu Bo'an said politely.

Generally speaking, the word "hard work" is only used by superiors and subordinates, and it represents the care of superiors for subordinates.

So what Xu Boan said was a little inappropriate, but Xu Boan was a little unhappy about it and didn't care about such trivial matters.

Zheng Qiudong continued, "Actually, the relevant punishment was decided by Director Su himself, so I can't say much. Director Su will probably tell you later. I called you this time mainly to remind you.
Your internal retirement application has been approved at yesterday's meeting. If it is convenient for you today or tomorrow, you can prepare all the personal information I told you about internal retirement and bring it to me for review.
If everything goes well, the process can be completed within a month, and you will be a freelancer by then. I really envy you."

Xu Bo'an was very happy. This was good news.

Xu Bo'an smiled and said, "I have to thank General Zheng for his care in this matter."

The two chatted for a while before ending the call.

Xu Bo'an got up, washed, and rushed to the company.

At the same time, at Liu Huawen’s home a few kilometers away, Liu Huawen was worrying about how to get to work at the company!

This is a large flat in a commercial area, covering nearly 300 square meters. It is decorated in European style and looks very high-end and classy.

To be honest, a house like this, with such decoration, is already a luxury home that many people will never be able to live in in their entire lives.

But at this moment, Liu Huawen's family living in the mansion were not very happy.

That's true. As a member of the company's leadership, I had originally thought that I would be able to make further progress before retirement. I didn't expect that not only would there be no hope of promotion, but I would also be fired before retirement.

Although I want to retire early, there are still many procedures I have to complete in person.

As long as he has not obtained the relevant procedures for the retirement certificate, even if he has not completely retired, during this period, it is considered a normal working day.

In this case, can he not go to the company to punch in for work?
If they then pursue the issue of absenteeism, wouldn't it be even more embarrassing? If they even use this as a reason to fire me, I wouldn't even have my pension left, and I would be crying my heart out!
The key point is that if this is true, the company's operations are completely reasonable, legal and compliant, and I have no place to complain!
But if I go to work again, how can I face my colleagues in the company?

From being a leader at the highest level to falling to being a junior worker at the bottom, the gap in between cannot be expressed clearly in just a few words.

Liu Huawen hadn't even faced the huge gap and the mocking looks from others. Just thinking about it made him feel his heartbeat quicken and his blood pressure rise! (End of this chapter)
